Media Matters: Can You Trust the Deseret News?

In Our Opinion. The Deseret News Has Consistently Acted Against the Interests of the People of Utah.

The First Duty of a Free Press is to Defend the Constution and Bill of Rights. Its Second Duty is to Expose the Scoundrels Destroying It. We live in the day of the Tyrant who can't move forward without his allies in the media.
